Great scope. I have tried other brands but I always end up going back to Leupold. I think its the best bang for your buck. Clear glass, perfect tracking? couldn't ask for anything more. Except 1 thing, bring back your handgun scopes.

I love this scope. Low light capabilities coupled with the firedot are a deadly combination. Simple yet super effective hunting scope.

I have 2 of these pig plex scopes. 1 on a Marlin 1895 45/70. The other is on a Ruger Hawkeye . 358 Winchester. I can shoot sub moa groups with both rifles at 100 yards. It is great for snap shooting as it is a very fast target acquisition scope.

Bought this for my squirrel rifle. It gets banged around a lot and I have yet to lose zero. As always with Leupold the glass is crystal clear and extremely well built.

I got this for my father in law for his model 700 in 308. He had a Nikon on it but wanted a better scope. This was a great upgrade in scopes. It's super clear and he's shooting a lot better with just changing scopes. This is a great scope for the cost.

I have 3 different 10/22s adorned with this scope. I love its compact size and light weight combined with parallax adjustment. If it had a side focus, I'd probably own 5 or 6 of them. (Hint Hint)

Great scope for 450 Bushmaster
By Shooter
Best bang for the buck scope for a 450 bushmaster used for Deer. I put a 3-9x freedom on a Ruger Gunsite 450 BM. I used the rear mounts not the front rail. 100 yard groups are under 1 inch. Bagged two bucks last year at 180 yards. If you hunt in lower Michigan where the shots are from 20- 200 yards this is all the scope you need. CDS is pre calibrated for Hornady 450BM ammo. All you have to do is establish a zero at 100 yards, set the scope on 0 lock the cap and its done. Good for up to ...

Astonished
By McBride
The VX Freedom line of Leupold scopes is hands down the best optics value on the market. It's everything you'd expect of a Leupold; awesome reticle, clarity and brightness that is unmatched, sturdy yet light. I don't know how they do it for this price...I'll be buying many more.
After extensive research and development, we present the high-quality 3-9x50 VX-Freedom Riflescope in a sleek matte black finish. This versatile riflescope is equipped with a second focal plane duplex reticle, a feature that enhances your accuracy by allowing precise ranging and bullet drop compensation.
The VX-Freedom Riflescope is a product of Leupold, a brand renowned for its durable and reliable optics. It incorporates the Leupold Custom Dial System (CDS), a user-friendly feature that provides a customizable ballistics solution at your fingertips. This system is not only easy to install but also effortless to use, making it ideal for both hunting and target shooting.
Built around Leupold's Advanced Optical System, the VX-Freedom Riflescope delivers superior light transmission, best-in-class glare reduction in harsh light, and the resolution and clarity that recreational sportsmen and sportswomen demand. It's 100% waterproof, fogproof, and shockproof, ensuring it can withstand extreme temperatures, elevation changes, and shocks, keeping the internals of the optics moisture-free and crystal clear for life.
The riflescope features a 3:1 zoom ratio, a common feature in many scope models, offering three times more magnification at high power than at low power. This allows you to adjust your power down for close encounters or all the way up for long-range shots.
The ergonomic design of the VX-Freedom Riflescope ensures a slim, lightweight product that fits comfortably in your hands, regardless of their size. The traditional eyepiece lock ring allows you to lock in a focus setting that is best for your eye, while the hardened surface coatings meet extreme military standards in scratch resistance and added lens protection.
The ZeroStop system creates a backstop when returning the dial back to zero, preventing accidental full revolution turns in the wrong direction. The duplex reticle, invented in 1962 by Leupold, is defined by heavy posts that stand out against cover in low light, ensuring quick target acquisition with thin lines at the center.
Designed, machined, and assembled in the USA, the 3-9x50 VX-Freedom Riflescope is guaranteed to deliver every time, making it a must-have for any serious sportsman or sportswoman.
